I started working on a iridescent shader it's not there yet. I have a real life reference of a "fabric" (more like plastic) that I'm trying to match; I'm not there yet. #godot #gamedev #gameart

Gamedev Unsung Heroes

I'd like to announce I have a new(ish) Podcast! It's called GameDev Unsung Heroes, and it's basically interviewing all the names in games you don't know about what they do, their career path, a few stories along the way. All free.

Here's the link gamedevunsungheroes.com

I could use re-posting :)

This is interesting because this particular NARC cabinet might have been the one used in the famous Foot Clan headquarters scene in the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in 1990!!

Genuinely, I think if they could have kept the greed in check for one more decade we'd have been cooked

There really was dropping interest in piracy, fewer folks using torrents, and those who did often did lazy searches for pirate streamers that're easier to kill

But they couldn't help themselves!

that the Trump administration is trying to shut down a leading AI company because it’s unwilling to develop autonomous murder systems is terrifying, and should be of grave concern to everyone in the world

WSJ: β€œA WSJ investigation tracked U.S. citizens caught in the crosshairs of an aggressive government campaign to detain and demonize dissenters.”

The Trump regime is cracking down on dissent. As authoritarians do.

About 20 years ago I was looking for a place to rent as a young guy, and one place I looked at was one of these. It was a 1 room mini house in someone's backyard. Now I have a term for it!

Can a hacker please just drop all the Epstein files at once. We can’t afford another war every time a new batch comes out.

We started with restrain ICE. Then reform ICE, then landed squarely on abolish ICE.

But I’ve moved on to prosecute ICE y’all. Every last one even if it takes 20 years of trials.

Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X

I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together.
This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.

Their point is they dont even know it wasnt a bomb. This person is a philosophical zombie. Best ignored.

You claim to be the only one that truly remembers or experienced 9/11.

A big part of the ugly aftermath of 9/11 was the patriot act and the DHS, which still haunt us to this day. Invoke the word terrorist - right or wrong- and the constitution goes away.
The confusing thing here is this could be helping your point.
I think 9/11 was an excuse for a power grab though.

Does anyone recognize this artifact? I'm storing the texture in multiple images to avoid exceeding max image dimensions and I'm getting this weird glitch at the tile boundaries

Even stranger, it isn't reflected in the UVs (second picture) and the sampler is set to nearest + clamp-to-edge

Itd be better if we fired trump and then got rid of all of them, but a nice win regardless.
